get after darnold move him off the spot uh the other thing I would do is I would run Mason a ton I think right now you're in a you're in a spot right now where Debo just got was you know got tons of hits last week auk looks really really rusty Trent's only played one game you got a A rookie starter at Right Guard albe it a good one and you got a really good defense I I would say run I would like to see a heavy dose of the Run game I'm gonna play share the screen one more time and let you hear what another great comment here this is from Richard Richard Sherman Sher Sherm uh was he's talking about Jordan Mason here um and Sherm of course played with um bya and he Mason reminds him of Marshon and you know what he reminds me of Marshon as well here's a dick Sherman talking JP Mason what a freaking game by Jordan Mason something about just getting your opportunity and making the most of it is really cool people saying he look like marshan Lynch out there my goodness he does run with a very heavy hat he runs downhill Mitchell he was punishing people all day you can see as the game went on he's starting to wear the defense down wear the defense down people turning down hits people turning down tackles hey sometimes they running into blocks like hey keep me over here I don't I I don't want what's over there that dude look like he like the rents doe he running like the rent is due Mitchell and that was freaking great for the San Francisco 49ers great for him you could hear how how happy and how proud KY Shanahan was of just him getting his opportunity they knew what he could do but he went out there and showed the world in a Prime Time game what he's capable of that was really cool the team was rallying behind him so there you go uh he's running like the rent is due um I'll say this you know I go into the locker room I talk to these guys this guy if you if you you know if you if you didn't know anything about football and I just said hey here's a here's a here's a player what what position does he play this guy walks in you'd be like oh man looks like a looks like a maybe a linebacker you know maybe a defensive end maybe a fullback yeah fullback or you know some Al lineman maybe a you know defensive tackle def I mean he's a big dude he talking about 240 really big um you're talking about a running back I mean this is a really great ad I mean law of awe here says Mason is a star in the making we can't hold that back no way I agree with law of a I I think this kid is not good not very good I think he is a star in the making I think law OFA is absolutely spot on here you know who he was reminding me of krugs I was getting flashes tell me you could agree or disagree on this but like the way he was running so physically so punishing and like Sher said just head down right into the contact he was reminding me of of uh William Floyd bar nun during his rookie season love bar nun me too you know before he got hurt he was that same kind of player he would get the rock I was there that day he got hurt where he blew out his knee against the Saints yeah but bar nun was like one of my favorite Niners of all time he just talk about a guy who just lowered his head like a bull and just yeah amazing power and I was getting shades of that with with with JP Mason the other night I was like damn that's that's a lot like William Floyd used to run the rock so you know what and he's right about that I mean it does take its toll on a defense especially when you've been doing that for three quarters and then you're getting into the back end of the game in the fourth the guys have their hands on their hips on the D line and it's like yeah here it comes again like just keep pounding Mason in there it pays dividends like in the game no question Jim Malay says Krueger called py Krueger called Mason Jimmy thank you bro appreciate you Tim Tim Don crew dude let's get a thing where we got like Krueger's crystal ball make some calls on guys you know do like a swamy thing and I like I see the Vikings minus the seven dude yeah yeah awesome Tim Don's crew oh wow some paully mack Vibes on a Wednesday yeah dude bides right on that's awesome um let's see we got this one law of all which is a great handle you've been talking Mason the past couple years Larry you knew just like Brock dude I mean this I mean yeah I I mean when I saw this kid and then I went back and watched his Gtech film how about Gtech Paulie they had this kid and jir Gibbs on the same team at Georgia Tech and jir transferred to B and went in the first round and now is I think one of the best young running backs in all of pro football on the Lions and you got this kid Mason and I'm telling you he's monster the only disappointing thing from Monday night was that somebody on the ners obviously told him that he shouldn't have said to Lisa Salters that they told him on Friday that he was gonna play and so he came to the podium super bummed and pissed and frustrated and that is not what and I tried to ask I tried to lift him up man I'm like I I said to him I'm like hey JP man you had an incredible game that was one that's the greatest game of your NFL career you got to be feeling good you know you know talk about your perspective on it yeah and you know he he he he got a little chipper but not really he was just so bummed that he was told that he said the wrong thing and so he it just if you watch that you're sitting there going wasn't this guy the star of the game wasn't this guy like the hero wasn't this guy like isn't this guy like the guy tonight and yet he stood there like like he you know started a fire in the upper deck or something I mean what it was unfortunate yeah it was unfortunate after his big big night and I was confused I didn't really understand because I saw him on the podium and I heard his answer but I was like I didn't know the backstory I do now but I didn't know what led to that so yeah that was unfortunate man for such a young guy to have his first really really big night and then have that little bit of tarnish on it at the podium hopefully you strip that away and move on but Cruz today and I know you saw this I was looking at Christian mcaffrey in the locker room talking about preparing to play so I mean you and I both are in agreement on this I would prefer they air on the side of caution right now with Christian mcaffrey because I think it's a game they can win without him and it's only week two and why risk something that that doesn't need to be risked I don't know but do you expect to see him uh suited up on Sunday you heard it so mcaffrey told us basically he's like because you know last week he stood at his locker on Thursday or Friday and said I'm playing you know you gonna go like I'm going I'm going so this week of course he kind of felt like he needed to kind of explain hey I said I was going I didn't go what happened what transpired and he basically said that in his mind Paulie that that he's gota he doesn't like that mindset of well I'm 5050 I'm 7030 I'm 75 25 he likes the mentality of I'm playing I'm playing I'm playing I'm playing I'm playing and then if I'm not then I'm not but I'm all in on playing so like he said today hey man I'm I'm I'm a full go Sunday but when we get to Sunday will he be a full go and is it his call I I'll say this I don't think it should be his call I think it should be um the doctor's call and Shanahan's call and Lynch's call I agree don't don't I save players from themselves The Players always want to play you need this guy at the end not now here's my all here dude you just you crushed it right there and for if you want to like take a stroll down memory lane just try to remember what happened when Kevin Durant insisted on playing in the finals you remember that like he was like no good I'm good to go I'm good to go boom that was it we didn't see him for a year and a half so I'm with you I as respect as I have for Christian mcaffrey and it's a lot I don't think that decision should be solely in his hands I don't no Monty asks Larry why did Mason go undrafted um three three numbers with a dot in the middle 4.58 is what he ran in the 40 so you know in a in an era where there's guys who run in the 4 tws and 43s and four fours and low four FS if you run close to 4 six you you you know you're not going to get drafted so he went undrafted the first day I saw this kid I'm like wow look at that guy now he runs upright and he kind of reminds me a little bit of marshan and that he runs upright so I don't know about durability but man guy's got real good Vision he's got real good ba power he runs with you know he runs a little upright but lately he's Run With Better Body lean saw um and you know he admitted to me I asked him I asked him I said he man um this is when they first came to Camp Paulie I said hey JP you know I think you're like one of the best players on this team that never plays what's going on why don't you ever play what's the deal you know and he's like and he was so straight it was unbelievable he's like he's like you know what I just needed to grow up wow W he's like you know Bobby T would call on me in the meetings and I didn't have the answers wow wasn't and he's like it wasn't like I didn't have a good attitude I just didn't know the answers wow and so because I didn't know the answers I didn't talk much and then you know he just kept going and then he kind of left me and he let he kind of let me go and you know um and I just he goes basically I just wasn't the kind of back that he wanted I wasn't doing what he wanted and um he's kind of the gatekeeper on the playing time and he basically just said I just needed to grow up and you know what he said when he was at the podium the other night I'm thinking to myself you know what there's more growth that's needed because he stood there like a 15year old or like a like one of my kids like a like you know like a 12-y old or 14y old who's like you know kind of the posture and looking down and really bummed and really upset and it's like hey you know what you're still you're a great back and you had a great night and yeah did you should you not have said this yeah but don't sweat that that don't worry about that that's nothing and I kind of wish somebody had yelled at him but then also lifted him up and I think what happened is that they yelled at him and then didn't lift him up and then put him in front of the microphone if you're gonna yell at a guy yell at him and then lift his ass up and be like bro all right don't say that to the media but guess what you just Rumble for 150 dude a great night in other words give me the Tony Salvador treatment you can yell at me and undress me but then when nobody's looking tell me I'm doing an okay job because that's what he used to do
